| 2-Chlorostyrene Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | clear colourless to light yellow liquid | | Chemical Properties | o-Chlorostyrene is a flammable, colorless liquid. | | Uses | Organic synthesis; preparation of specialty
polymers | | Uses | 2-Chlorostyrene is an important raw material and intermediate used in organic Synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and dyestuff. | | General Description | Clear yellow liquid. | | Air & Water Reactions | Highly flammable. Insoluble in water. | | Reactivity Profile | 2-Chlorostyrene may be sensitive to heat or prolonged exposure to light. 2-Chlorostyrene may polymerize. | | Hazard | Central nervous system impairment and
peripheral neuropathy. | | Health Hazard | By analogy to styrene, ochlorostyrene
is expected to cause central
nervous system depression at extremely high
concentrations and possibly irritation of the
eyes, nose, and mucous membranes.
There are no reports of adverse effects in
humans. | | Fire Hazard | 2-Chlorostyrene is combustible. | | Safety Profile | A skin and eye irritant.
